Full Interior Grooming
Our full interior grooming service is designed to refresh and rejuvenate the interior of your vehicle. We meticulously clean every surface, from dashboard to upholstery, using specialized techniques and high-quality products. Whether it's removing dust and debris, treating leather seats, or shampooing carpets, we ensure your car's interior looks and feels like new, leaving it fresh and inviting for every drive.
Exterior Wash & Wax
Our exterior wash and wax service goes beyond a simple wash. We start with a thorough hand wash to remove dirt and grime, followed by a meticulous drying process to prevent water spots. Then, we apply a premium wax coat to protect your car's paintwork and enhance its shine. This service not only cleans your vehicle but also provides a protective layer against environmental elements, ensuring a glossy finish that lasts.
Paint Decontamination
Over time, your car's paint can accumulate contaminants like industrial fallout, road tar, and tree sap, which can dull its appearance and cause damage if left untreated. Our paint decontamination service involves using specialized products and techniques to safely remove these contaminants, restoring your car's paintwork to its original luster. This process not only improves the aesthetic appeal but also prolongs the lifespan of your vehicle's paint finish.
Leather Conditioning
Preserve the luxurious look and feel of your vehicle's leather interior with our professional leather conditioning service. We carefully clean the leather surfaces, removing dirt and oils, before applying a premium conditioner to nourish and protect the leather. This treatment helps maintain the suppleness and resilience of your leather seats, ensuring they look pristine and feel comfortable for years to come.
Carpet Shampooing
Our carpet shampooing service is designed to deep clean and revitalize your vehicle's carpets and upholstery. Using advanced shampooing techniques and powerful cleaning agents, we effectively lift dirt, stains, and odors from the carpet fibers, leaving them fresh and rejuvenated. Whether it's spills, pet hair, or everyday wear and tear, our thorough cleaning process restores the appearance of your vehicle's interior, creating a clean and welcoming environment.
Headlight Polishing
Restore clarity and brightness to your vehicle's headlights with our headlight polishing service. Over time, headlights can become cloudy or yellowed due to oxidation and environmental exposure, reducing visibility and compromising safety. Our polishing process involves removing the oxidized layer from the headlights, followed by a protective sealant to prevent future discoloration. This service not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of your vehicle but also improves nighttime visibility, ensuring safer driving conditions.
